The Station at Jazzhuset
The dynamic duo behind the much-missed club Romo Night are back. Their new venture, The Station, picks up where the old club left off two years ago, carrying the same spirit into a new chapter.
Across the sand dunes in Denmark
There’s something about the Danish west coast that feels like the edge of the world. Not the romantic windswept cliffs of poets and painters, but the raw desolation of a place that never cared you were here to begin with. Harsh and beautiful at the same time.
Bunker safari in Denmark

One year with Stack Overflow
Almost a year ago I noticed that two of my favorite coding bloggers, Jeff Atwood and Joel Spolsky, were founding a company together with the amusing name Stack Overflow. Their aim was to create a site with useful information for fellow coders, generated by user content.
The last Tinitus festival
This weekend marked the end of an era. Tinitus, Stockholm’s long-running industrial and electronic festival, held its final edition after ten years.
